Chimp attack victim seeks primate sales ban

[AlexisFitzy]

Don't get me started on Whales, Killer Whales should (In MY Opinion) NOT be kept in captivity, at all, end of story. These animals, in their natural habatat swim miles each day, the ocean is their playground. Sea World comes along and stuffs these Highly intelligent animals in what is basically equivalant to a Betta cup (don't get me started on Bettas either!!!). Then train the whales to do tricks for our enjoyment....nope, sorry, can't back that. My family and I are staying as far away from Sea World as possible. Sure it is possible the animals are happy in their tiny tanks....hell they've bred so that must mean they are happy, but they are also hurting and in some cases killing their trainers....why, only the whales know.

It's a proven fact that pigs are smarter than most dogs. I wonder if they are lazier than our Golden Retriever!

I'm so glad you brought up the point of the Killer Whales. I watched the documentary on Netflix called Black Fish after seeing parts of it when it came on tv and it changed my whole world upside down. I was on the brink of tears. Sea World is such a horrible corporation that feeds people completely wrong info on the Orcas telling people they only live for 20-30 years when that's how long they live in CAPTIVITY they can live a nice long life in the wild almost a human lifespan. They tell the people "Oh their fin is supposed to be flopped over like that" and when you see Orcas in the wild the fin is pointed straight up. They've kept all the attacks and deaths hidden from the public and from workers which results in more attacks & deaths. They took a baby orca from it's mother to take to another Sea World and the mother got extremely depressed and would scream out to it's baby to come back so she could find her. That part makes me cry every time. It's absolutely horrendous what people do to animals for "entertainment." Sea World won't be getting a cent of my money or from any of my family or friends because they never should have even been in business in the first place. Leave them in the ocean where they belong. No one on earth is capable of providing what an orca needs because it needs the ocean, so leave them there.
